PREFATORY  NOTE 

The  accompanying  list  is  ^designed  primarily  to  serve  as  the  basis  of 
observations  by  the  instructor  and  as  a  guide  to  the  students  in  English  1 50 
(Bibliography  and  Methods  of  English  Literary  History)  in  the  Graduate 
School  of  the  University  of  Chicago,  y  It  is  hoped,  however,  that  the 
material  may  prove  useful  to  other  investigators  who,  bewildered  by  a 
seeming  multiplicity  or  nonplussed  by  an  apparent  absence  of  sources, 
labor  under  the  delusion  that  the  collection  of  bibliography  is  largely  a 
matter  of  luck  and  that  consequently  it  makes  little  difference  where  they 
begin.  Special  attention  is  therefore  called  to  the  Universal  Bibliographies 
(section  III),  the  Bibliographies  of  Bibliographies  (section  IV),  the 
indexes  and  classified  lists  of  books  and  articles  (sections  V-VI),  and  the 
bibliographies  of  dissertations  (section  IX).  Students  are  urged  to 
exhaust  these  general  sources  of  information  before  following  the  desultory 
method  frequently  adopted  even  by  otherwise  respectable  scholars.1 
They  are  reminded  that  the  most  efficient  investigator,  by  acquainting 
himself  at  the  outset  with  previous  collections  of  material  on  his  subject, 
avoids  the  necessity  of  repeating  operations  already  performed  by  others, 
and  spares  himself  the  possible  mortification  of  discovering  at  length 
by  accident  that  the  matter  under  discussion  has  already  been  adequately 
treated  and  that  therefore  his  labor  has  been  in  vain. 

If  In  order  to  avoid  confusing  the  beginner  by  a  multitude  of  references, 
the  compiler  has  included  only  a  few  of  the  most  useful  or  comprehensive 
sources.  Although  the  choice  has  generally  been  restricted  to  books  and 
articles  which  are  strictly  bibliographical  or  contain  bibliographical 
features  and  which  deal  with  English  literature,  a  number  of  works  not 
usually  included  in  bibliographies  of  English  literature  have  been  intro- 
duced because  they  furnish  information  on  subjects  which  are  allied  to 
English  and  which  sometimes  demand  the  attention  of  the  literary  in- 
vestigator at  a  time  when  he  has  little  bibliographical  information  outside 
his  special  territory.  ^  It  should  be  added,  however,  that  the  lists  of 
special  bibliographies  and  treatises  given  in  sections  XI,  XIII,  and  XIV 
are  not  intended  to  dispense  with  the  consultation  of  the  general  repertories 
enumerated  in  sections  III-VI  and  IX.  For  the  sake  of  convenience 
the  literature  of  America  has  been  classified  separately.  The  list  is 
followed  by  an  index  of  the  most  important  entries.

des  principaux  repertoires,  .  .  .  mais  ce  n'est  jamais  sans  tatonnements  ni  sans 
deboires,  et  il  est  rare  que  la  science,  acquise  ainsi  de  pieces  et  de  morceaux,  soit 
integrate "  (Charles-V.  Langlois,  Manuel  de  bibliographic  historique  [2.  ed.,  Paris, 
1901],  I,  viii  f.).  /»

INDEX 54 


The  study  of  bibliography  and  of  the  scientific  methods  of  using 
books  should  have  an  assured  place  in  the  university  curriculum,  .... 
and  ....  all  who  go  forth  into  the  world  as  graduates  should  have  such 
an  intelligent  and  practical  knowledge  of  books  as  will  aid  them  in  their 

studies  through  life I  do  not  mean  that  the  university  student 

should  learn  the  contents  of  the  most  useful  books;  but  I  do  mean  that 
he  should  know  of  their  existence,  what  they  treat  of,  and  what  they  will 
do  for  him.  He  should  know  what  are  the  most  important  reference 

books If  a  question  arises  as  to  the  existence,  authorship,  or 

subject  of  a  book,  an  educated  man  should  know  the  catalogues  or  bib- 
liographies by  which  he  can  readily  clear  up  the  doubt.  The  words  Watt, 
....  Graesse,  Querard,  Hoefer,  Kayser,  Hinrichs,  ....  Hain,  and 
Vapereau  should  not  be  unmeaning  sounds  to  him.  He  should  know  the 
standard  writers  on  a  large  variety  of  subjects.  He  should  be  familiar 
with  the  best  method  by  which  the  original  investigation  of  any  topic 

may  be  carried  on No  person  has  any  claim  to  be  a  scholar  until 

he  can  conduct  such  an  original  investigation  with  ease  and  pleasure. 
— WILLIAM  FREDERICK  POOLE  (1821-94) 

I  think,  sir,  ....  you  will  find  it  a  very  good  practice  always  to 
verify  your  references. — MARTIN  JOSEPH  ROUTH  (1755-1854) 

This  is  my  chief  word  of  advice  to  every  teacher.  If  you  wish  to  make 
a  text  your  own,  if  you  wish  to  have  any  sort  of  right  to  give  any  opinions 

with  regard  to  it,  the  least  you  can  do  is  to  verify  your  references 

I  can  assure  you  that  this  is  the  easiest  and  best  way  of  learning  to  be  a 
scholar,  and  therefore  of  qualifying  yourself  for  being  a  teacher.  But  I  have 
a  special  reason,  even  beyond  this,  for  giving  this  advice.  For  it  is  the  way 
to  gain  a  true  interest  in  the  subject  you  are  teaching;  ....  and  it  is  the 
way  to  open  your  eyes.  .Scholarship  ....  is  a  question  of  having  eyes 
or  having  no  eyes.  If  you  have  no  eyes,  you  will  not  make  much  of  .... 
scholarship.  Moreover,  the  particular  eyesight  of  which  I  am  now  speaking 
is  a  thing  that  can  be  acquired;  and  it  can  be  acquired  and  trained,  at  any 
rate  to  an  elementary  extent,  by  the  simple  process  of  looking  to  see,  when  a 
reference  is  given  you,  whether  the  thing  which  is  asserted  is  really  sp. 

....  To  one  who  has  never  yet  tried  it,  such  advice  seems  to  be  the 
stupidest  and  the  dullest  imaginable;  and  perhaps  the  most  useless.  But 
the  man  who  has  tried  it  soon  learns  to  know  better.  For  the  results  are 
often  so  wholly  surprising,  so  novel,  so  sensational,  that  anyone  who 
honestly  tries  to  follow  up  to  their  sources  only  a  few  items  of  information 
will  soon  be  caught  by  the  excitement  of  it,  and  will  soon  learn  to  do  by 
choice  and  out  of  pure  pleasure  what  he  began  to  do  out  of  duty  or  curiosity. 
— WALTER  WILLIAM  SKEAT  (1835-1912)
